Just The Same In Every Way - Strawbs

At the gateway to my life you stood

The door was open wide

And even though I tried so hard

You would not step inside

You would not step inside

You’re just the same in every way

As others I have known

I just don’t want you round no more

I’d rather be alone

I’d rather be alone

I keep on hearing footsteps, on the stairs

Makes me think I made the grade

But they pass on by my empty room

And down the hall they fade

And down the hall they fade

You took all I had to give

And flung it back in my face

And what’s the use of trying again

I have nothing left to waste

I have nothing left to waste
